After
Ba's death, one day, while taking milk, Bapu observed a hair in it. At once he
removed it and drank the milk. Someone noticed this and so asked Bapu, "When Ba
was alive, you used to take her to task severely if any time a hair or anything
else managed to fall into the milk. Nay, you even refused point- blank to take
the milk. But today your behaviour is so different."
Bapu answered with almost a pang in his heart, "Well, Ba was unique and in a class by
herself."
